This month we uncover some of the best renditions of your favourite tracks. While some artists tend to do a karoke-copy of the original, these artists keep the integrity and essence of the original song and sprinkle their own flavour for a tasty musical experience. In the golden era of music, artists made successful careers out of presenting revivals or reworkings of once popular tunes or contemporary “cover versions” of current hits. Musicians now play covers as a tribute to the original performer or group. These songs will feel as familiar as your favourite sweater, but will sound like you are hearing them for the first time.
